I have a Poweredge 1400sc server that I installed Dual Processors in. After looking deeper I noticed that one of my processors is Stepping 1 and the other is Stepping 4.. I've read that you are not suppossed to mismatch your processors.. is this anything I should worry about or just let it be??

thanks
 
Mismatched stepping can cause all sorts of strange faults, that will have you tearing your hair out. I would recommend that you get a matched set of processors installed. Save yourself the pain and anguish
 
Well I agree.. I tryed to get Dell to send me out new one and they want me to swap the two around before they will ship out new one..
